RE: Cultivating the offspring of my prickly pear cactus (Esp/Eng)
Cactus are so fun!
Do you need to boil the banana? I've always just let it sit in water for a few weeks, or you can chop it up finely and put it in the soil under the plant or dry it in the sunshine to make a powder. More energy efficient!

Hello @riverfloyd
Thank you very much for your comment. It really isn't necessary to boil it; I think you get better results using it the way you do. The shells are recycled better and provide more nutrients.
I'm going to try drying it in the sun. One question: when you dry it in the sun, is it the fruit without the peel?
In this case, I recycle the water left over from cooking the bananas that we eat almost every day at home.
Best regards and have a great day!
Let me know how you go with sun drying! Yes, it's the peel you use - I saw it online.
